Stuck for a term paper? Get one free online.
Haaretz - December 31, 2004
Kenny Sahr and Yasha Harari, the founders of schoolsucks.com, are among
some of the most feared and reviled figures in the mainstream American
educational system. Their Web site, which is accessed by some 300,000
students a month, provides already prepared term papers and homework
assignments to lazy students across the United States, all for free.
But Sahr and Harari, two Americans who immigrated to Israel, seem to be
reveling in the criticism, mostly because the attention, however
negative, has highlighted their stated business goals. "We're here to
improve education, not help kids cheat," Harari insisted this week. "We
may have a cheeky name, but it's a somewhat noble cause - with a
capitalist angle to boot."
School Sucks, a Web site as irreverent as its name, was launched in 1996
with a single press release sent to fraternity houses across the U.S. In
the wake of the subsequent uproar from parents and faculty, the site
spread like wildfire and in the years since, hundreds of thousands of
students have downloaded millions of term papers in some 150 languages.
